Einstein
This is a biography with a difference, for it reviews in the light of the latest advances in science the life, ideas and work of one of the greatest scientists who has ever lived. Such an approach offers a better insight into the intrinsic connection between the physical conceptions, philosophical views, public ideas, moral principles, creative psychology, aesthetic inclinations and plain human charm of Albert Einstein, the man, the scientist and the philosopher. At the same time this approach enables one more fully to appreciate the scope of the revolution in the notions of space, time, motion and matter brought about by Einstein, grasp the essential features of 20th century science, and understand why both the physical theories and the image of the man who created them will live on forever.

Iako se moze steci dobra slika o uticaju Ajnstajna kao licnosti na modernu nauku i misao knjiga je natrpana gomilom digresija. Preko 200 strana je posveceno smrtnosti i besmrtnosti Ajnstajna a ceo treci tom su paralele Ajnstajn-Aristotel-Dekart-Faradej-...Dostojevski-Mocart. Paralele su cesto vrlo prazne i proizvoljne ali je velika steta sto ne postoji paralela Ajnstajn-Poenkare.
